The school is probably a designated as a "gun free zone" so I guess that duelling pistols were out of the question.

News Alert: France becomes world's first country to enshrine abortion rights in constitution


France became the world's first country to enshrine abortion rights in its constitution on Monday, the culmination of an effort that began in direct response to the US Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

Lawmakers from both houses of the French Parliament voted 780 to 72 in favor of the measure, easily clearing the three-fifths majority needed to amend the French constitution.

Monday's vote, held during a special gathering of lawmakers at the Palace of Versailles, southwest of Paris, was the final step in the legislative process. The French Senate and National Assembly each overwhelmingly approved the amendment earlier this year.

The amendment states that there is a "guaranteed freedom" to abortion in France. Some groups and lawmakers had called for stronger language to explicitly call abortion a "right."

The French are still useless. One good thing doesn't make up for everything else.

Us Americans wouldn't have won the Revolutionary War without the French. For that, I'll always have big soft spot for them.
